On the official PlayStation site, Sony teased the classic Spider-Man villain in a small section of Daily Bugle Issue #2, in which fictional journalist Betty Brant warns readers of the hazards of a new street drug called Grave Dust.

IGN’s own Joshua Yehl drew comparisons between the article and the classic Spider-Man villain on Twitter:
